Hi all- Over the past week or two, I've been trying out asterisk under Fedora 1 Linux (RedHat). In my setup (single and dual Xeon motherboards), I have so far had a very good experience in terms of performance. In doing E1 load testing, I've found that Fedora handles heavy load much better than RedHat9, probably because of its better use of the multi-threading capabilities of the Xeon.

Hi- Because a majority of my customers are in Europe, I've gotten quite used to working with ISDN (PRI) and BRI on a regular basis. Recently one of my customers asked me if I could terminate a few lines locally here in the USA (California), so I called up SBC to enquire as to how much it would cost to install a BRI here. Although the rates were reasonable (except the installation), I got

Hi- I have an upcoming application that requires use of PRI channels that are primarily used for high-volume incoming traffic, but that are to be used for outbound calling as well. Of course, one option is to have dedicated outbound channels reserved, but this is an inefficient use of channel resources. Normally PBX's are designed to have the CPE yield to an incoming call if a particular

Hello- Is it possible to set the CDR record field called "accountcode" from within the dialplan? Or is there another way to cause this field to be set, preferably without using AGI code. Thanks Scott Scott M. Stingel Emerging Voice Technology Inc. Palo Alto, California and London, England www.evtmedia.com

Hello- I'm using the "accountcode" field in cdr table to store some temporary information used by my perl scripts. I'm finding that the field seems to be truncated to 19 characters, even though the allocated field in the table is larger (varchar(45)). Anyone familiar with the asterisk sources know where I can make a change to keep this from happening? ie: to allow more

Hi, I have resources available to host a portal specifically for the Asterisk system, to help correlate documentation, FAQ's and How To I am new to Asterisk, and my hardest work is in locating information on using or configuring the software. Would Mark, John or any of you feel this would be of benefit to host? I am offering a PHP-NUKE portal for this, (Unless you know of a better

Hi all- Thanks to Mark Spencer for finding this patch: If you are experiencing leftover zombie processes from your AGI scripts that have terminated, this is apparently due to a RedHat 9 threading issue introduced in a recent update.... To get rid of this, try entering the following line before you start asterisk: export LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.4.1 It works for me - I'm still checking to

Hi- I'm almost embarrassed to ask the following simple question, following John's excellent and rigorous bandwidth analysis (see earlier thread): I have a straightforward Asterisk application, IVR-only (no connections between channels). It will simply decode DTMF's and speak prompts (probably A-Law encoded) on a number of E1 circuits simultaneously. Realistically, how many

Hi all- It's often mentioned here that recompiling the Linux kernel may improve the performance of asterisk. My question is: Does re-compiling the kernel have any effect if there are no changes to the configuration? What parameters will typically improve performance? Thanks for any insight! Scott Scott M.

I wouldn't make a fuss about this. sarge is at least as good as woody and much more up to date for the stuff asterisk can do /

Hi- I have an upcoming order for a bunch of asterisk boxes, and I'm considering using an "assembled" package for the server, instead of building them from components as I usually do. Does anyone have experience with the Dell PowerEdge 750 server, or any other 1U rackmount server for use with asterisk? Thanks in advance Scott Stingel Scott M. Stingel President, Emerging Voice

Hello- What is the .gsm format? Ie: what's the encoding method and sample rate please? Thanks Scott Scott M. Stingel Emerging Voice Technology Inc. Palo Alto, California and London, England Email: scott@evtmedia.com URL: www.evtmedia.com

Hi- Perhaps someone with an E100P in hand can answer this: I just received an E100P from Digium (I normally buy quad boards) I noticed that the circuit board says "T100P" on it, and I assume that the T100P and E100P both use the same circuit board. Can someone please confirm that their E100P says "T100P" on the artwork? Thanks Scott Scott M. Stingel Emerging Voice

If asterisk is running as a daemon (started with no command line options), can I reconnect to it and get the vvverbose info in the console? In other words, will asterisk -rvvvc work? Sorry to ask.... I would just try it to see if it works, but I don't have an installation handy and have to do some remote troubleshooting soon. ThanksE+06. D. __________________________________ Do you

Hi- I have posted a photo of the TE410P Digium card on my site, so that those wishing to purchase a compatible motherboard can see physically what the PCI slot requirement is: http://www.evtmedia.com/TE410P.htm I believe the required slot is a 64-bit, 3.3 Volt PCI, most commonly found on Xeon-based motherboards. A 64-bit slot is longer than the TE410P board requires, but the PCI connector

I know in the x100p hardware the driver can sense whether there is battery voltage on the line or not. Is this possible in the zap drivers using t1/e1 interfaces ? I believe the signalling bits are only ring and hook, not loop presence, so not sure if it is possible. I had a situation last night where a main cable was cut in the area and lines were down overnight. My burglar alarm knew right
